Green & Co. s report on cotton futures says:
1T has been q slow, dragging sort of market
all day, with rates off car points, closing on a
fractional recovery, but with business quite
dull. Liverpool was weak and low to disap-
pOing extent. creating a desire among the longs
to unload. and in the absence of buying orders
it did not take much pressure to shade values.
An increase in stocks at New York, Philadelphia
and Galveston also had slightly depressing
influence"

hour when sharp break 10 s2l6c followed
Moderate buying caused reaction to S31Ac, fol

another rally to s3tsc, 10 be again succeeded by
a drop 20 e21i@ o2E5c, where the market rested
for the day. A decrease Of 100000 bushels in
the visible supply was somewhat larger than
